XP SP3. Everytime I open a folder on my desktop I get a pop up screen that says please wait while adobe configures adobe. It appears to be trying to install adobe and then finally opens the folder. It only happens on folders on the desktop including icons(my computer etc.) Please help. Thanks.

suggestion:
uninstall Adobe Reader, install CCleaner, run a clean up job with CCLeaner, run a Registry scan with CCleaner, reboot a few times (may sound redundant but can't hurt), then download Adobe Reader again and install it...
if you have other Adobe products intalled, uninstall all of them, and reinstall them after you have done the above...
